Arsenal's Kieran Gibbs has emerged as a surprise new candidate to solve Liverpool's troublesome left-back spot.
The Reds have struggled in the position for many years now and the patience of many fans was tested to its limit with current incumbent Alberto Moreno after his Europa League final horror show against former club Sevilla with his side surrendering a 1-0 lead to lose 3-1 in Basel.
According to Football Insider, the Gunners will listen to offers for 26-year-old Gibbs this summer after he lost his place to Spanish left-back Nacho Monreal.
Liverpool, who are also monitoring Leicester City's teenage left-back Ben Chilwell – who has made just three senior appearances for the Premier League champions – could turn to Gibbs instead as a more experienced alternative.
Born in Lambeth, Gibbs, who has been capped 10 times by England, has spent his entire career to date with the Gunners apart from a loan spell at Norwich City in 2007/08 when he turned out seven times for the Canaries.
He has played over 200 times for Arsenal and played in the 2014 FA Cup-winning side.
